Joyful Letters

Photo Details

Poster: susanbri

This week's CAS challenge - a Ways to Use It challenge to use letters.

I had recently used a brass stencil with embossing paste and glitter and I got a bunch of paste where I didn't want it. So I pulled that out and cut out the "J" and the "Y" and the heart, and made a new "O" using the two smallest Nesties circles - added some glitter to the "O" and mounted the letters on Nesties labels, popped it up on a dp background and a pale green cardbase. I'm really pleased the results of re-using a messed up thing that otherwise was destined for the recycling bin.

Wow! Unless you had mentioned it, I would have NEVER guessed there was anything that could possibly be a "mistake" on your lovely card! Your letters go so perfectly with the DP and I love your little red heart in the O. It makes your card so sweet! Wonderful CAS card!

Love your card and background paper! How imaginative that you were able to use what you normally would have discarded! I imagine if I tried the paste I'd have the same issues.
